Vienna, Austria
Come explore this magnificent city whose history goes back to Roman times. There is so much to see, from St. Stephen’s Cathedral to the Imperial Palace, and of course the magnificent baroque palace Schonbrunn. Bask in the splendor of the Secession, the Museum of Fine Arts, and the modern architecture of the Museumsquartier. Walk in the footsteps of the Habsburgs, visit the Belvedere Palaces, or stroll along the magnificent Ring Boulevard and take a look at the heart of the former vast Habsburg empire, the Imperial Palace. Get a sense of the luster and glory of the old empire by visiting the Spanish Riding School, the Giant Ferris wheel at the Prater, as well as the sarcophagi in the Imperial Vault.
Vienna's cultural tradition of high art is well known worldwide, exeplified by a wide variety of theater, music, art, and cinemas. This historical city has been home to many famous musicians, such as Mozart and Beethoven. Vienna’s most trendy shopping mile is the Mariahilfer Strasse between the center of the city and Westbahnhof; hundreds of shops offer fashions, jewelry, and accessories. Enjoy yourself with a leisurely shopping stroll, in the sweet life between coffeehouses and pubs. Vienna also boasts one of the world’s most famous culinary traditions. A diverse yet delectably harmonious range of dishes reflects the city’s mix of nationalities and food cultures through the centuries, and inspires visitors from all over the globe.
Vienna is a very green city with an impressive number of parks in the city center. Situated in the very center of Europe, some of the most fascinating destinations are just around the corner. Tour Salzburg, Graz, Lake Neusiedl, or the Wachau region and its scenic beauty.

The practitioner of anesthesiology must possess the scientific background for clinical practice; maintain state-of-the-art knowledge of not only the specialty, but also of all additional related disciplines which may impact it; maintain an up-to-the-minute armamentarium of knowledge and skills for the selection and use of complex equipment, pharmacological agents, and procedures necessary for the provision of quality patient care; manage self and colleagues to function toward common goals in the clinical setting, the clinical and educational institutions, and the community in which the practice resides; serve as an expert in matters involving health care delivery; serve as an informed manager of clinical and educational services provided, including the acquisition and distribution of resources necessary in meeting professional goals; and provide assistance with and support of other service providers, departments, institutions, and organizations dependent upon the professional expertise of the practitioner.

OBJECTIVES
At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to:
Apply the pertinent physical and behavioral sciences - to include but not be limited to advanced anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, chemistry, physics, psychology, and social sciences - as they impact and are affected by the planning, delivery, and monitoring of anesthesia and related services inherent in the anesthesia professions.
Explain the selection, dosing considerations with methods of administration, safe use, and contraindications and precautions of presented pharmacological agents through the understanding of their physico-chemical properties, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, updated uses, and more recently developed additional, related, and similar drugs.
Outline comprehensive management plans for the group of patients discussed, whether related in age, physical status, cultural background, invasive procedure, anesthetic or analgesic requirements, clinical setting, adverse reactions, and/or goals of care.
Apply the principles of safety and asepsis in the performance of anesthetic procedures and administrations, equipment use, and other applications encountered during the provision of anesthesia and analgesia whether in the surgical unit, the labor and delivery suite, the pain management clinic, or other more remote location of anesthetizing services.
Incorporate the appropriate recommendations and/or requirements of pertinent external organizations, institutions, and professional groups - recognized as serving as the authority for and/or holding the responsibility to compile and approve such tenets - in the provision of anesthesia and related services, whether medical, legal, philosophical, ethical, or health care management standards.
